    Great planning

    I had a chance to meet and speak with Danny Kennedy a few months ago and he's the real deal. With the right market incentives, this company is really set to spearhead the consumer solar market in CA. I can't wait to watch it happen.On 'Dell of solar' seeks to make it cheap and user-friendly to get rooftop PV posted 1 year, 4 months ago 4 Responses

    The article is right on

    Our current industrial civilization is based on an economic philosophy of infinite growth, which is prima facie impossible. That's not to mention issues of complexity.

    For a complete exploration of the inevitible demise of civilization, check our Derrick jensen's two volume series, "Endgame."On Wow posted 1 year, 7 months ago 19 Responses

    It's going to take more than letters

    These thugs don't understand the environment, they only understand dollars, which Rogers manages to bring up repeatedly ("eceived $460 million in local, state, and federal clean coal and economic development incentives", "will receive $125 million in federal clean coal tax incentives", etc.). Hell, the greenwash column was even written by a guy with the last name "Overcash," as in, Nothing Over Cash. Not the environment. Not the future. Not the climate or the planet or our very lives.

    He barely addressed any of the points brought up in the original letter.

    The new Cliffside unit will help supply those power needs while reducing air pollution.

    Anyone happen to have the numbers on net reduction in air pollution? They are conspicuously absent from Overcash's column. I can't imagine that opening this new plant will actually reduce air pollution.

    It's going to take more than letters. Thank you to all the NC activists who chained themselves to bulldozers in protest of this atrocity.On Duke Energy CEO responds to climate scientist Jim Hansen posted 1 year, 7 months ago 13 Responses

    It is indeed about the paradigm

    It is the nature of our industrial paradigm that is driving these disturbing experiments, not meat eaters.

    The difference, I suppose then, is that some of us are actively trying to remove ourselves from that paradigm (veganism being only one such way) while others are content to accept it.

    I'm not happy simply hoping for change, I'm going to live the dream to the best of my ability, and educate others as I go.On 'Heart-healthy' pork from pigs with bad hearts posted 1 year, 7 months ago 33 Responses
